Hymnal: The Morning Star #107 (1877) First Line: Broad is the road that leads to death Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death,
And thousands walk together there,
But wisdom shows a narrow path,
With here and there a traveler.
2 "Deny thyself and take thy cross,"
Is the Redeemer's great command;
Nature must count her gold but dross,
If she would gain that heavenly land.
3 The fearful soul that tires and faints,
And walks the ways of God no more,
Is but esteemed almost a saint,
And makes his own destruction sure.
4 Lord, let not all my hopes be vain,
Create my heart entirely new--
Which hypocrites could ne'er attain,
Which false apostates never knew. Tune Title: WINDHAM
Broad is the road
